Wow! Dont give up on this subaru, and for God's sake, do not put a 6cyl in it LOL, or an STi [Matt!?!]. Worst case, pass it over to us, we will get after it! We ran Subaru rally cars since 1999, and know exactly what this car needs! Matt knows how to reach us :) Scott G.

its looking good Matt!! We are working on getting an event together for these, I'll keep you posted :smiley_drive:

stoked to see some ZJs being built. I intend to start my thread soon too! What a score for $900, I am jealous!!

I say you do a run at the Expo event :) We will come out from so cal !!

Hey... Thats my video! Thanks for posting :)

Hey Scott... Check out the GravelCrew kids out testing some new Forester theory.... :Wow1:

I stopped by subiworks and Jackson Rally yesterday. They showed me some of their suspension system parts. This is shaping up to be really cool! That are building some pretty crazy stuff at the moment. That have a WRX that is doing the Baja 1000 this year, a GL wagon on 30" tires, all kinds of...

They are just getting going. I will stop by today and see if I can get some pictures and some info for you guys. Their focus has been rally for a long time. The Forester fun has just been on the side until they get their line of parts done.

I may be able to help with this issue. The "GravelCrew" working with Jackson Rally in Murrieta Ca are working on expedition style subarus. They have developed a lift kit for the foresters as well as drivetrain mods that will greatly assist in their low speed abilities. The guys also rebuild...

Good to see you here Travis! Say Hi to Gabe Pari and Rad1, they are here too! :victory:

HAHA! How ya doin Tim?! Its good to hear from you. I really missing sliding the rally car around the water resevoir, those guys would leave the gate open during the lunch hour. I could usually get 6 corners deep before the security guard would start after me. I only got trapped once, but that...

Thanks for all of the great compliments and insight guys/gals. We are very excited to get our rig set up a litle better and take on some different areas of the western USA. It is nice that some of you guys read the whole thing and posted comments, it makes the 8 plus hours worth of writing well...

Day 3 continued About three miles into our latest adventure we came across a plume of gray blue smoke and began to slow down to see what it was. When we looked off to the left we saw a truck down in the ravine and someone headed toward us with a flashlight. I am slowing to a stop and my wife is...

Day 3 continued We caught the 127 and headed toward Baker to catch the 15 Fwy. We were reminded that we were out on the road on a holiday weekend as we passed the Dumont Dunes recreation area. Wow those dunes were packed! We stopped for one last top off of fuel in Baker and prepared for the...

Day 3 continued I made an agreement with my wife that if we made it to the gas station without running out, that she could choose where we would go next. I also felt bad that we didn’t get to go to the Crater or Scotty’s Castle, or the “Racetrack” for that matter. The Racetrack is a place where...

Holy Crap! It's Gabe!! Man, I heard you were in this sand box a while ago :) We need to hook up! :smiley_drive:

Day 3 continued I managed to gather speed, and then throw it in neutral and coast as far as possible. We did this for the next 15 miles all the way to the main road. Once we came to the junction we were doing 45MPH and rolling in neutral, we looked both ways and blew the stop sign onto the main...

Day 3 continued ….. The snow was up to about 4 inches deep and just to the point where the mud tire tracks disappeared and we were on pure snow and ice. We rounded a corner and began the steep climb, this is where the proverbial **** hit the fan, half way up our steep climb we encounter another...

Day 3 continued We kept pushing on rarely breaking the silence between me and the wife. We approached an uphill portion of the trail and broke traction. Luckily it was at a point where there was a flat area just big enough for our vehicle to pull off and be clear of the road. My wife got out...

Day 3 continued It was about 10:30 am when we started to ascend the mountain from the canyon floor. The first evidence of snow appeared; as we traveled further we caught up to a 4x4 Toyota Tundra lifted on bigger tires. He was cutting a trail for us through the snow. As we climbed higher and...
